After Bai Su got off the carriage, Bai Ye looked at Su Wanning and asked, "You still have a lot of these things?"

Su Wanning found a plastic bag and put the things on the table in it. "There are a lot."

After packing the things, he put them into the space. "Is Bai Su's birthday coming soon?"

Bai Ye looked incredulous, "How did you know that?"

"When I was in the village before, I overheard someone talking about preparing for a birthday. I wasn't sure so I asked."

"His birthday is in about two days. We should be in the next town by then." Thinking of Su Wanning's actions just now, Bai Ye asked tentatively, "Are you packing so many things just now to give to him on his birthday?"

Su Wanning nodded. "It's not something valuable. If he likes it, just give it to him. But don't tell him about this in advance."

"You are really generous. Although these things are worthless to you, they are priceless treasures to others." Since Su Wanning is so generous, she will try her best not to let her suffer any loss. When she arrives in Lingnan, she will give her a big gift.

"Remember to remind me on his birthday." Su Wanning yawned and prepared to lie down and take a nap.

There was a sudden knock on the carriage, and Su Wanning sat up again and looked at Zhan Beiwang who was following the carriage outside.

"what happened?"

"Aning, I will prove everything to you." Zhan Beiwang left after leaving this sentence.

Su Wanning was confused. "What does he mean?"

Bai Ye waved his hand, "Who knows?"

Su Wanning was interrupted by this and her original sleepiness disappeared.

"what's for dinner?"

"That's a lot." Bai Ye swallowed.

Su Wanning motioned for Bai Ye to tell her, and Bai Ye stretched out his fingers and began to count, "The shrimp we ate yesterday, and the spicy noodles, instant noodles, and hot pot we ate before that..."

Su Wanning immediately interrupted her and said, "Pick the one you want to eat the most."

"Then let's have that shrimp, it's quite delicious."

"Then go check the nearby paddy fields and see if there are any crayfish. Catch some and I'll take them away. You can eat them whenever you want."

Bai Ye thought about it and said, "There's a village just up the road. If we just ask the villagers to fish in the paddy fields, wouldn't it be faster for us to buy it directly?"

Su Wanning looked out the window and saw a village not far away. "Okay, when we get to the village, we'll just turn right over there."

Bai Ye walked out of the carriage and drove the carriage outside. The carriage quickly surpassed the exile team.

The exiled officials were relieved when they saw Bai Ye driving away in the carriage. When Bai Ye was there before, they did not dare to discipline the exiled team, for fear of disturbing Bai Ye, teaching them a lesson, and making them lose their prestige.

Now that the people have left, they can start waving their whips.

As soon as he raised the whip into the air, he saw Bai Su who was still at the back of the team, and quickly withdrew one whip.

Su Wanning and the others soon arrived at the village.

There were already quite a few people chatting at the entrance of the village. When the two entered the village, they all stood up and walked over.

"Whose relative is this girl?"

"We came to see the village chief to buy some things." Bai Ye jumped off the carriage.

"Buying things? People in our village rely on farming for a living. We don't have anything else?" someone in the crowd said.

"The village chief is here, he is the village chief." The crowd voluntarily made way for him.

It was an elderly man who said, "I am the village chief. If you two girls have anything to say, just tell me directly."

Bai Ye took out a crayfish he had picked up when passing by the paddy field, and the villagers who had originally gathered around took a step back.

“We’re going to acquire this thing.”

The villagers seemed incredulous. They pointed at the crayfish, whose claws were still waving in Bai Ye's hand, and asked, "You want to buy this big insect?"

Su Wanning nodded, "We want to buy this thing, two copper coins per pound."

The price was also agreed upon by the two on the way. Crayfish are naturally heavy, and they can easily pick up several kilograms in a short while. If they give too little, no one will bother, and if they give too much, it's not worth it.

When the villagers heard that they would be given two copper coins per pound, they were a little tempted. After all, it was a free thing from the fields, but they didn't dare to believe that Su Wanning and the others would really collect the insects.

Su Wanning turned around and pulled out a box full of copper coins from the corner of the carriage. "Everyone, go tell your family members to go catch them together. When you fish, hold it like she does so your hands won't be pinched."

He opened the box in his hand and said, "First come, first served."

When the villagers saw the copper coins in Su Wanning's hand, they all scattered and suddenly there was a burst of shouting in the village.

"Dad, come with me to the fields to catch the big bugs."

"Gou Wa Zi, you go too."

"Go and touch the big bug."

Bai Ye adjusted the carriage to a suitable angle. Su Wanning took out a stool and looked at the villagers in the distance who were bending over to catch crayfish. "Actually, being a landlord isn't bad either."

Bai Ye, who was moving things, heard her words and kept them in mind.

Soon, villagers came over with baskets on their backs. Bai Ye poured the crayfish from the baskets into the large bamboo cage they had prepared and weighed them. "Two pounds in total. This is four copper coins."

The man obviously didn't expect it to be true. He put the copper coin in his pocket and ran to the field excitedly.

Seeing that they could really exchange it for silver, the others worked even harder to pick up the crayfish.

Two hours passed quickly, and the two men collected about three bamboo baskets of crayfish and placed them in the area in front where the carriage was driven.

The two men left the village.

Not long after walking a distance, Su Wanning put all the crayfish into the space.

Fortunately, when she passed by the town, she saw these big bamboo cages and bought a few more, which came in handy now.

The two returned to the exile team under the cover of night. Bai Su was eating with a resentful look on his face. When he saw Su Wanning and the others coming back, he turned around and didn't even look at them.

"Okay, who are you showing that look to?" Bai Ye walked up to him and kicked him.

Bai Su looked at Bai Ye with tears in his eyes, "You guys just ran away without saying a word. I couldn't catch up with you even if I broke my own skin. I thought you had abandoned me.

All the pots and pans were taken away, so I can't even cook. I wanted to buy something to eat, but I didn't have any money left. Now you blame me for being so rude."

"Aren't all your treasures in your package? Wouldn't it be enough to eat if you sell your treasures?" Bai Ye looked away guiltily.

But suddenly he saw Su Wanning picking up Bai Su's package filled with treasures from the carriage.

Bai Su snorted and continued to eat the rice in his bowl.

"It's our fault. We won't do this again next time. I'll prepare some snacks for you and put them on the ox cart later." Su Wanning walked up to Bai Su with his package and comforted him.

The corners of Bai Su's mouth curled up slightly, then quickly suppressed.
